    Valheim - Viking Survival Game (Early Access)

    The trouble with block is that it pushes you back out of swing range. By the time you move back in range they are swinging again. I didn't know wolves could be tamed. I never in a million years would have figured out how to tame pigs if someone hadn't told me.

    Valheim - Viking Survival Game (Early Access)

    I really wish I had done more combat early on. I've just been building and taming pigs and sailing and such. Now I find out the entire combat system is underpinned by active dodge, a close second to quicktime events for worst game mechanic in recent history. Oh no a nuclear blast nearby! No...

    I noticed github has a social media image you can associate with a repository, so I started AI cranking on a taverny themed image for my game library stuff Groblibs. I wanted it to look rather dirty and deformed and scuffed to reflect the state of my libraries. Instead of trying to guess at...

    Linux OS stuff Thread

    BTW unrelated to the above, yesterday I was playing Valheim and it had some kind of seizure. I could tab out but I had no mouse and the main monitor was kind of frozen. So I figured I'd just alt tab to a terminal and ps -A |grep val or Val but nope, nothing. I tried ps -A |more but it was...

    It works but you want dxvk-native. Dxvk normal version is sort of focused at wine, the freaky windows emulator stuff. So far I've just created a window and a swap chain. Next is loading/storing/compiling shaders. https://github.com/Kharzette/GrogLibsC

    In ye olden tymes, you'd always want to be sure to take an anvil or two. Seems like one time I had a kobold thief steal mine and It was really hard to get one. Had to trade for it or something.

    Dwarf Fortress

    Moonmoon had the music on and turned up, and it is really nice. Everyone else had it off or so low I couldn't hear it. They took the theme of the original (that got old fast) and expanded on it nicely.

    My black widow's w key has been barely hanging on and a week or so ago the S key broke as well. They are sort of still there but if you hit them just right they tilt vertical and come off the switchy thing. So I last minute black friday'd a steelseries apex 3 tkl. It feels cheap, and it was...

    Dwarf Fortress

    No it's more about mixing the two. Political stuff, religion, these are things best kept to yourself. True in sports, business, games, whatever. I'm there for a car race, or a game or to buy a foozle. Leave lofty opinions to the wise and focus on the art.

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Six hour battle with "meson", a turd of a build system. Overcomplicated, vague error messages, terrible docs, shits all over itself if you give it a relative path. Do we really need more build systems?

    I'm watchin giantwaffle. Seems exactly like the base game mechanically, just graphics. I am like the previous pages, I'd be more inclined to give them money if they were less political. Just workwise they really deserve success.

    I've never gotten into test-driven. A friend tried to sell me on it years ago but so much of the time my inputs and outputs are impossible to even check. Stuff ends up in pixels on a screen. I recently did something that I think would benefit from it; A 6502 emulator I'm going to use as my...

    Valheim - Viking Survival Game (Early Access)

    I started over. My character or save or whatever was all messed up. I kinda made everything I could make and then was stuck. Restarting fixed it. Now I'm just stuck being 1 short of a red foozle nubbins for making coal. Instead I'm massacring everything I run across and turning meat into coal.

    Managed to make some decent textures with just the ordinary stable diffusion model. Was making armor for my valheim model. This one is a ringmailish hauberk: This one is a scaleish sort of short sweater that goes with a skirt. Just used really basic prompts like "scalemail texture".

    I'm quite fond of kubuntu and I've started looking into doing development there. There's a directx / vulkan layer of some sort and I could cross compile and run with wine for the basic bits of windows forms I use. For games it is really just window creation, but my tools have alot of extra...

    So the above finally boiled over last week and I rage nuked the partition, bought a dodgy win7 key at some shady site, and went back to the golden era of windows 7. It was very rough; alot of googling to kick windows update into shape, get nvidia drivers to install etc. I'd also forgotten some...
